Remember last week I did the last bit of sculptamold for Ackerville well we had some nice weather this weekend and it finally dried. That means it was time to get a wee bit of paint down.

So this is what it looked like when if had dried. The WSOR is on the right coming downgrade to be level with the CN mainline and both will parrallel each other around the corner before diverging with the WSOR heading to Milwaukee and the CN continuing towards Waukesha.

At the moment I am focussing on completing my Scenery AP which means I need to do 18sqft of scenery and that means just doing into that corner you see in the picture but I call Ackerville done when we get the scenery finished up to the point the tracks get level again.

So here we are with the base scenery on, its the usual burnt umber that will have woodland scenics flex paste over the top and then snow powder. Of course thats plan B as the first attempt didn’t go quite as expected, you’ll see how well it goes or not later in the week when the materials arrive.

Anyway I know Brad is bored reading this now so I can promise that tomorrow we will be moving to the WSOR Northern Sub to add Helix Number 2.

Stay Safe
